Moreover, DoNotPay can also help you remove personal information from the Internet. This includes your name, phone number, and photos from Google and hiring someone to remove your personal information from the Internet.

Why It's So Difficult to Get Personal Information Taken off the Internet

If you've ever attempted to delete private information about yourself from the Internet, you've realized that numerous obstacles stand between you and complete online privacy. Ordinary customers may be ignorant of how companies use or share their personal information. The companies or individuals running the websites may be financially incentivized to keep your information public. Moreover, some companies have no reason to delete your personal information from their websites. Here are a few reasons why taking your details from the Internet may be challenging.

Confusing Redirects

When trying to remove your information from various websites, they may direct you to another website that may frustrate you. Although some sites may delete your data instantly, others may make you wait for a significant amount of time, taking days or even months to delete your private information. Meanwhile, the websites where you'd like to delete your information may not provide any feedback or progress updates throughout the removal period.

Hard to Completely Delete Data

Regardless of how much a corporation wants to help you delete your private information, it may fail. It's challenging to remove data entirely from the Internet since systems like hard drives, databases, apps, and others often mark data as deleted rather than truly erasing the information.

Information is Exposed on Many Websites

Google search results may not accurately reflect the number of websites that keep your gathered data. Even if your name does not appear in Google's search results, it is still likely to be exposed to lesser-known, poorly designed search engines that you may not even know. Even if your private information has been taken from Google, scammers and stalkers may still be able to locate it on these sites.

How to Remove Your Email Address From LinkedIn by Yourself

You can delete your email addresses for your LinkedIn account on the Settings & Privacy page. Before you may delete a primary email address, you must first make one of your secondary emails addresses your primary email address. Only then will the Remove link appear next to the email address. Follow this step to remove an email address from your LinkedIn account.

Click the 'Me' icon in the top right corner of your LinkedIn homepage.
Select Settings & Privacy from the dropdown.
On the left rail, click Sign-in & Security.
Next to the Email addresses, click Change.
Click Remove next to the email address.

Next Steps for Deleting Your LinkedIn Email Address if You Can't Do It Yourself
